I’m afraid I will add my experience to a long list of similar issues. My car was registered in March 21 and like many others it ran in EV mode happily for a few months. Then after a couple of remote software updates - that incidentally caused a few other temporary glitches with the sound system and satnav- the problem of the EV being temporarily unavailable has got worse and worse. It even jumps out of EV mode when sat stationary at traffic lights! The car has been into JLR and had numerous software updates after diagnostic checks and they said that had sorted the problem. I hadn’t even got back in the motorway from the dealership and it started playing up again, so no improvement. It’s going in again for 2-3’days this week so will update if they manage to sort the issue.
As many of posts have stated, this is incredibly frustrating given we have paid around £55k for a car that doesn’t work! We based our affordability on the fact we would be saving a considerable amount on fuel as I only generally drive around 30miles a day max, which should be done on a full EV charge.
I will mention the volume of similar experiences to the dealership, watch this space!
